[e-users] Patch: prevent segv if pulseaudio crashes
Hi Flavio, Here is another patch to prevent segfaults in E if pulseaudio crashes and we try to interact with epulse. I am not sure what causes pulseaudio to crash in my system, but it seems to happen once in a while. I installed pulseaudio only a week ago, so I am unfamiliar with how it works and why it might be even prone to crashes, to begin with. Perhaps you have a better idea of the patch: 1. if a smaller change is possible that checks whether pulseaudio is running, and/or 2. displays a warning to the user instead of silently ignoring the error and returning, as I have done in the patch. In case sourceforge strips the attachment, it can be accessed from here: https://github.com/ppurka/system-patches/blob/master/x11-plugins/epulse/epulse.patch Regards, basu. -- Is your legacy SCM system holding you back?

Re: [e-users] Strange icon display in iBox.
On Sat, 03 May 2014 12:27:38 +0200 Pierre Couderc pie...@couderc.eu said: I have 2 desktop files vmware-player-XP.desktop and vmware-player-W8.desktop They appear without problem in the iBar,each one with its own icon. I start vmware-player-W8.desktop, iconize it, and it appears in the ibox but with the icon of vmware-player-XP.desktop. (instead of vmware-player-W8.png). I do not understand what may occur. because icons are not provided by the app but are matched. matched by a seies of guesses, each one getting less accurate as you fall back. the mo9st accurate is via netwm startup id, and this is an env var set when app is launched. it is the job of the app to set the string content pf that env var as a property on the window. my bet is vmware doesnt do this, so e is falling back to matching commandline executable (vmware) which is ambiguous. it may match class name too. so... may a copy or symlink and use a different executable or complain to vmware about netwm startup id. to check the startup id: $ xprop | grep ID _NET_STARTUP_ID(UTF8_STRING) = E_START|133 (and click on the window you want to check - notice efl apps do this).

I noticed that the icons on the desktop change to the Gnome, Mist etc theme when checked. there seems to be no Enlightenment theme though and I like the Enlightenment desktop icons for external drives, home, root. is there an icon theme dedicated to Enlightenment? have to figure out both your suggestions on the second user account. I'll be back to report! trust me - it'll work. and don't enable enable icon theme for enlightenment if you want to keep e's icons for files as you like above. just choose an cion theme that gets you all the icons and you'll be fine. -- - Codito, ergo sum - I code, therefore I am -- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler)ras...@rasterman.com -- Is your legacy SCM system holding you back?

Re: [e-users] EFL based IDE project
On Tue, 6 May 2014 23:40:48 -0300 Wido wido...@gmail.com said: I liked the milestones. I think this is a great idea for lowering the entry barrier. I think 'Cross reference for c, c++ and some scripting language' should be explicit with python, since is the most supported efl language. Also, I unless the python bindings start using eloian, that will not remain the case for long. eolian currently has code for generating c++ bindings (it's being reviewed and merged over the past weeks and will come in fulling in the coming weeks). soon we'll have a full luajit runtime with complete bindings (well anything that is an eo class/method/property etc.). so soon lua will be far better supported. the hint here is... use eolian and make a bindings generator. then it can be complete and keep up automatically as interfaces etc. are added. think that 'search' should be expanded into 'search' (for current directory), 'search and replace' (plain text or regex) and 'find in files' (like a grep). my 2 cents =) 2014-05-02 10:48 GMT-03:00 Carsten Haitzler ras...@rasterman.com: On Sun, 27 Apr 2014 19:21:28 +0100 Andy Williams a...@andywilliams.me said: awesome. how... organized! :) i think i'll just add emacs mode to the mode line... :) Hi, So I thought it was about time I posted about the EDI project that I'm working on.

Re: [e-users] Adapt canvas content when the canvas is resized
On Mon, 05 May 2014 09:06:34 +0200 jcaz...@sirlan.com said: Hello, Thank you for your response. However with the callback way, content of the canvas will not be resized automatically. that's your job in the callback - to resize it accordingly. elm provides widgets and infra that does this for you (how do you thing resizing of a window magically adjust content properly?) When the canvas is resized (according to the TV resolution), I would like that its content be resized automatically. Is there a way in Evas/Evas-Core to intercept the content (pixels) of a canvas before it's send to the framebuffer (in order to apply an alpha to it) ? no. alpha is added based on content if you enable alpha and the engine supports an alpha destination (gl-x11, software-x11, wayland_egl and wayland_shm all support shm destinations). ie withe these, where there is no content, it is transparent.

I've noticed that when any application goes 'non responsive', and E displays the little spinning ( whatever it is ) to indicate the app is non responsive ... E's CPU usage goes to 100% on one core. As soon as the app becomes responsive again, CPU usage returns to normal. Surely this isn't all being used to animate the little spinning thing? Is something else going on in there? sudo perf top find out... i bet you will find the time is being spend inside kernel and/or gl driver somewhere (mesa?). i've seen this before once on nvidia drivers - they would spinlock waiting for buffer objects to map them. this wait would consume3 100% cpu while waiting inside the driver. i have seen the mesa intel drivers consume a fair bit of cpu copying data around interally. -- - Codito, ergo sum - I code, therefore I am -- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler)ras...@rasterman.com -- Is your legacy SCM system holding you back?
